Do you mean a sidebar with a note in it? Some time ago I asked a
similar question and got various answers. For a partially
embedded sidebar Hans suggested something along this line:
--

\setupoutput[pdftex]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\frenchspacing
\tolerance = 1000
\setuplayout[width=4in]
\setupfloat
   [intermezzo]
   [
   leftmargindistance=-.8in,
rightmargindistance=-.8in,
default={outer,high}]
\setupcaption[intermezzo][location=none]

\defineframedtext
   [myohmy]
   [width=6cm,bodyfont=small,
frame=off,
backgroundcorner=round, 
backgroundradius=6pt,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.8]
%\showframe
\setupmarginblocks[
style=small,
width=5cm,
before=\startmyohmy,
after={\relax,\stopmyohmy},
align=middle,
 ]  
\long\def\sidebar#1{\placeintermezzo{}{\startmyohmy #1 \relax\stopmyohmy}}

\starttext
\input ward
\placeintermezzo{}{\startmyohmy\input dawkins \relax\stopmyohmy}
\dorecurse{3}{\input knuth \par}
\page[yes]
\input ward
\placeintermezzo{}{\input dawkins\relax}
\page[yes]
\input ward

FOO
\sidebar{%
\input dawkins

Additional text.
}
\dorecurse{3}{\input knuth \par}


\stoptext
-
This delivers a longish sidebar, partially embedded in the text
block, with a gray screen background.

Hi,

Does anybody know if it is possible to place footnotes in the margin? If 
so, how?

TIA,
Alex Lubberts

Every time I turn on \showframe I think that the margin is such a beautiful place for 
placing footnotes (per page, flushbottom). There must be a way!
Isn't there a way, Hans?
 

i posted something, didn't i?

A suitable place could be the margin. But there is no 
"\setupfootnotes[location=inmargin]"
and somthing like "\inmargin{\footnote{}The footnote's text.}" doesn't flow.
Does anybody know a working solution?
 

Idris should know since i made him definable footnotes -) 

\showframe
\definenote[mynote][way=bypage,location=text,width=\marginwidth,rule=,before=]
\setuplayout[backspace=5cm,margin=3cm,margindistance=.5cm,width=middle]
\setuptexttexts
 [margin]
 [\vbox to \textheight{\placenotes[mynote]\vfill}]
 []
\starttext
test \mynote{one} test \mynote{two} \page
test \mynote{one} test \mynote{two} \page
test \mynote{one} test \mynote{two} \page
test \mynote{one} test \mynote{two} \page
\stoptext
or a bit more modern (structured, readable, replacable): 

\setuptexttexts
 [margin]
 [\setups{flushmynotes}]
 []
\startsetups flushmynotes
 \vbox to \textheight{\placenotes[mynote]\vfill}
\stopsetups
So, it's up to you to feed this in the wiki -)

[NTG-context] Footnotes in margin?

2004-08-18 Thread Steffen Wolfrum
Hi,

does ConTeXt provide a way to place footnote (not margin notes!) per page - but not 
below the body text?
A suitable place could be the margin. But there is no 
"\setupfootnotes[location=inmargin]"
and somthing like "\inmargin{\footnote{}The footnote's text.}" doesn't flow.

Does anybody know a working solution?

Thank you,
